Dropping Students Off
Bus Information
All student bus information can be found in our Traversa Ride 360 app.
Download instructions can be found HERE.
A good suggestion for kids is to take a screenshot of the app and route numbers to make it easier to find the information after school on the first day.
Dress Code
Students are expected to dress appropriately for school. We will discuss the specifics of the dress code during class meetings at the beginning of the school year. Hats and hoods are to be removed as soon as a student enters the building.
Before/After School Hours
After School: Students who are not scheduled to meet with a teacher, club, activity, or athletic practice must exit the building by 3:00 p.m. Students should not be in unsupervised areas.
